We had a pretty quiet week this past week. We like quiet weeks. My spouse canceled the Wednesday night church service after only a few weeks because of lack of attendance. I'm glad because it's one less day of the week that he has to be out late. He finishes us his course Varieties Of Gay & Lesbian Religious Experience (talk about a mouthful) this week and I always enjoy hearing about his assignments and what other people in the course post about them. Maybe I'm biased but I sometimes think his brain must be 3x bigger than everyone else's. Today we'll have dinner at the home of one of our church members with a few other couples and for the next three Friday nights we're booked for dinner with other friends. Talk about a social calendar. Are YOU doing something fun this weekend?
Stranger than fiction (I can't make this stuff up): There was a study that was presented in Chicago last week that was very alarming and sad. Women are not getting the full effect of vaccines and painkillers. Doctors in Ireland gave 25 women shots and each shot included an air bubble. The bubble and meds only reached the muscle in the buttock in two of the women. To be effective, the medicine must be injected into the muscle. The medicine and bubble in the other twenty-three women didn't reach the muscle and the women were at risk for infection. Standard size shots are no longer cutting it apparently. The study focused on women but I'm sure the same could be true of men. Rounder rumps are preventing the medicines from working. The solution: Longer needles!!!! So next time the doctor says it will hurt him/her more than it will hurt you, it's a lie!!!!
